Thuggees run wild

And while I’m here…the Thuggees were Indian folks who went about robbing and killing travellers (often via strangulation) for criminal/religious reasons.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thuggee has the full scoop, as much as Wikipedia can be trusted.

The word seems to fit these cocks, both in its original and current interpretations. I hope they consume a whole bunch of cheap bourbon and cokes, and then crash their Commodore into a tree, dying horribly in the ensuing flames.

This story is actually quite scary. I hope they catch these idiots and lock them away (here’s wishful thinking…)

I would love to see an area of central Australia surrounded by a lethal barb wire fence, say 10 sq km. Thugs like these and other detritus who commit unprovoked violent crimes would be sentenced to a suitable period in the ‘ring’. No rules. Just a chopper flight once a day throwing some food out for the inmates to sort out who gets what. No supervision, the inmates get the same leniency they showed their victims, some survive some don’t. On the allocated day of release, if the inmate whose turn it is can make it to a gate, they are let out, if they miss the appointment, bad luck try next month.

Oh, and I’d put car keyers in there as well.

Oh, how you long for the day when scum like this pick on the wrong group of people and cop a well deserved arse kicking. Never seems to happen though.

You just never hear about it.

I suppose they’re unlikely to rock up at the police station and report that the people they were trying to rob bashed them.

If this were America they’d be able to sue, though.

If this were America they’d be dead. A LOT of people have concealed carry permits over there. Even more carry firearms with them in their cars.

Troll-sniffer, I would like to bear your children! I’m a guy, and I still feel that way! These vermin don’t deserve the benefits of being a part of our society. Putting them in the middle of the desert with their like-minded colleagues is the natural solution.

Regarding the gun thing, I think it’d be great to be able to pull out a Roscoe and smoke these f*ckers after they’ve boxed you in at the car park. But reality intrudes. The American experience shows that having weapons freely available to all and sundry just causes the villains to bomb up as well, resulting in an arms race.

Furthermore, despite all movie bullshit, handguns are bloody cumbersome and uncomfortable things to carry, and astoundingly difficult things to shoot accurately. I have some familiarity with this topic, and I’m pretty sure that without extensive training, you’re more likely to shoot yourself, or a stranger or a loved one rather than one of the Ungodly.

Nice thought though. Perhaps there should be extensive training available to those who want to carry, and risk the consequences.

“These incidents appear to be random and unprovoked and police believe all three are related. Descriptions of the offenders are Caucasian, aged in their early 20’s and wearing tradesmen-like clothing.”

Hmmm. There are a lot of tradies from interstate working here at the moment. Not saying anything but….

Thuggees, eh. What’s next, dacoits? Probably.

I know it can be hard to think of (and it doesn’t always help anyway) under stressful conditions such as being bashed by offensive weapons but surely by now somebody has clocked the rego plates of the cars involved?

That would explain all the cops in attendance at TCH on Monday night (I was there with my 6yo son from 1pm til we got a bed at 4pm). I saw two young men with nasty head injuries in triage and then a third in a bed in the actual Emergency ward. In my very tired state, I was at a loss to work out what had happened. So now I know, thanks.

Nasty pieces these offenders are … I hope they catch them, give them a taste of their own medicine, lock them up and throw away the key.

But the gates only open for 30 seconds, and it’s as big as a cat.

I’m undecided on the car keyers side of it… Some drivers deserve it.
